Cooperative Tisseuses is most well known for their hanbel rugs. While hanbel rugs are commonly found through the Middle Atlas mountains, the contemporary design found on most are large said to have started in Ain Leuh. Regardless of the origin of these rugs, they still set the trends in the wider weaving community. The symbols on these rugs reflect different criteria of Amazigh women such as courage which is represented by the lion eyes.

MEET THE MAKERS
Hachmia Addouiri
Hachmia was born and raised in Ain Leuh. She is widely regarded as one of the hardest working members of the Ain Leuh Cooperative.

Hachmia is a single parent with two girls and a boy. Her dedication and persistence of her work allow her to use the money she earns to support the children's living and education. She is indeed a strong woman!
